    Chinese pork French bread
    Jimmy N.

    I was pretty impressed with the interior design of this place. Sort of small but good for a small group. From 7pm-9/10pm is mainly for small bites and mellowing out. Later on the night it turns into sort of a night club. I went on a Saturday night and had about 20-25 in my party. We had 4 tables right in the middle of the restaurant. I was really worried about the service here from all the bad reviews but our service was excellent. I didn't catch our waitress name (short redish orange hair ) but she was super nice and attentive. Everything we ordered and requested was brought out right. There were other waitresses that assisted her and they all seemed nice and very helpful. Food - I really liked their French bread pizza. We actually tried all of it. My favorite was the miso lobster because of the vinaigrette sprouts that was garnished on top. Good amount of lobster too. The char siu pork buns was ok. I wouldn't get that again lol the wagyu was also ok. I wouldn't waste your money on that lol Service - 5/5 Food 4/5 Atmosphere 4/5

    Have mixed emotions about Caveau. Me and my friends came in Saturday night after we previously made a reservation for 6. The place is located right in the downtown area of Boston and there's a parking garage close to the restaurant which is very convenient. The ambiance is great and the restaurant itself is very pretty and nicely decorated. We came in for dinner and not for the club part but they immediately ID us at the entrance saying that in order for the to serve alcohol at the table everyone has to be above 21, which honestly has never occurred for me and my friends at any other restaurants. We were seated pretty quickly at the waitress was very nice and helpful with the menu. My only complaint is how limited the menu is and how is predominantly small plates. I ordered the flatbread, it was good but It was more of a quick bite then dinner. I would say that the prices are very reasonable. The thing I loved the most about this place is the decorations and interior design. This restaurant is perfect for pictures.

    A pretty place with good vibes. A rather small place but the seating will make you feel like you have your own corner. Food was good as well. I really enjoyed the chinese pork flatbread pizza. Also catered well to a friend who was allergic to shellfish. We were recommended getting the OG passion cocktail in social service since we were a group of four to be more cost efficient. It was a unique experience. The drink was strong as well since there was no ice at all.

    Such a cool vibe! The bartender said they are going for an Alice in wonderland abandoned train station vibe. Drinks were very unique but yummy. Music was great. They've only been open for a year, i think it would be a great going out spot if more people knew about it!

    Honestly the food and drinks were surprisingly quite good, just really overpriced. I really liked the decor and ambiance too, but if I was going for actual dinner I would be disappointed since the food menu is quite small and the tables are like DCP tables where there are couches and you have to bend over to eat. The drinks were also pretty good - not too strong but definitely not weak either. We got there a little early 7 or 8ish and sat at the bar since we didn't have a reservation. By the time we left, the disco ball was on and the music was getting loud but it was more EDM style than your typical top 50 hits which I liked.

    We came here for a birthday dinner and afterwards came back to get a table here for the night/club scene. Would not recommend if you're looking for a full on dinner/meal since they mainly have small plates for food and not actual entrees. Aesthetically this place is really pretty/well decorated but pretty overpriced. At night though I would say if you don't have a table the dance area is closed off and relatively small. Food: they have pretty good food but they're mostly small tapas style food that's pretty pricey. But can't complain I would say if you're looking for a chill sit down place with nice cocktails and small plate foods this is a great place! Drinks; the cocktails here were nicely presented and tasted great Service: during dinner service was good! We came here for a birthday celebration and the server was nice and attentive. There is a cake cutting fee if you do bring your own cake fyi. (Which is common in a lot of places) At night when we got a table I felt there was a lot of pressure from the girl that was serving our table to keep ordering more when our crew had enough to drink, which wasn't the greatest experience but I do understand they wanted us to just order more to get more $. It was kind of uncomfortable having her stand over us and watch us the entire time to get us to order/drink more. I would say bottle service isn't worth it also maybe for that reason there was basically no one else here at the club that had a table besides us, probably won't do that again. Ambience: 10/10 very nicely decorated and aesthetically pleasing. Club scene is just alright, there are definitely better places in Boston. Would only probably come back to get a nice unique cocktail and some small apps from here.

    the interior of a restaurant - The image shows the interior of a nightclub or lounge with a rock-like textured wall decorated with hanging plants and lighting fixtures. There is a floral-patterned sofa and a small table in the foreground, with a railing separating the seating area from a stage or dance floor. The ceiling has multiple spotlights and speakers, and the overall ambiance is dark with focused lighting.

    My friend and I went to Caveau on a Saturday night with dinner reservations. The entrance was a little bit hard to find, but we found it after a bit of walking around. The hostess was extremely welcoming and walked us to our seats. The atmosphere/decor of this place is incredible. It's really unlike any other place in Boston or any place I've really been to. It was whimsical and mysterious, while also being modern and intriguing. Everything we got was amazing: Chinese Pork Tahitian French Bread Pizza ($22) - 10/5; the flavors were incredible, and it was perfect for two people. I was a bit skeptical about the flavors being put together, but it was really well balanced. Bora Bora Shrimp ($22) - 5/5; wish there were more shrimp on the dish because of how amazing it was. It was perfectly sweet with the vanilla/coconut sauce, and I wish more places did shrimp like this. I would've loved them as a kid!! Poisson Cru ($23) - 4/5; An interesting take on a pokebowl of sorts. It wasn't anything too extraordinary, but it was fresh and delicious. What more could you want? These three dishes were enough for the two of us to be very happy and full. I highly recommend Caveau as it's probably one of, if not the, best restaurants in Boston.

    The ambiance and decor of the restaurant is absolutely stunning. The dj was great and the music was good for the most part. I would not recommend coming here for food because it's not good and very medicore. I would not come here to eat. At the very least they should have oysters, it's Boston! The dessert was burnt and nasty and very disappointing. The drinks were the only redeeming thing about the night here. The waitress we had was not very nice and we had to do everything ourselves such as clean up our tables and serve ourselves which was odd. Giving the place 3 stars just because the decor was nice and the music was good and because the security guards were super nice. Other than that I would only come here for the drinks and the vibes.

    I am so surprised by all the negative reviews! I admit, I did see the reviews before I booked the resy but I'm all about the vibes anyway so I took a risk. We both went in not expecting too much in terms of food and service but we were pleasantly surprised! Let me start off by saying the place looks amazing! I was obsessed. The bathroom area with the mirrors etc is perfect for photo ops. The main area is beautiful and covered in greenery. DJ is spinning the slaps. And the food was to die for! We honestly would've stayed longer had we not been so jet lagged. But our dinner was juicy and flavorful and the drinks gave us a good buzz that we decided it was sleepy time lol. If you are flying in, plan to come here after you rest because it really is a cool place to come with friends and spend at least 2-3 hours.

    Club review: does not give tap water, forces you to buy Fiji bottled water. Drinks were not good, bartenders were incredibly rude. Also the crowd is disappointing and boring, way more boring than other Boston venues. Convinced people only come here for the aesthetic and just stand there. It is very pretty, but also overpriced for the show it provides. Laser system is good though.

    Dj with what looks like the Cheshire  cat looking over everyone - The image shows the interior of Caveau, a restaurant and nightclub in Boston, with a stage area where DJs are performing. The ceiling is decorated with hanging greenery and flowers, creating a cave-like ambiance. The background includes a large, stylized face with glowing eyes, and the space is illuminated with soft, colorful lighting. Red chairs are visible in the foreground, and a woman is seated at a table on the left side of the image. The overall setting combines modern decor with natural elements, suitable for dining and nightlife activities.

    The atmosphere was very cool. You walk through some beige brick entrance and arrive at the center where you find sofas, chairs, and ottomans surrounding big coffee tables decórese with little lamps. There's flowers and plants along the wall and hanging from the ceiling to give it the cave like effect . There are screens on the ceiling and behind the DJ. We went on a Friday, during 'dinner time' the music was varied well and once it turned night club at 10 the DJ really mixed it up with some Latin, pop, reggae, early 2000's club mixes. For Dinner- read the reviews!!! They do not serve big portions of entrees. They have a curated menu of small bites you can share with friends or order for yourself. More to make sure you're not drinking on empty. BUT don't disregard the food, it's all very well prepared, the flavors are delicious and all a good combination. Try it but don't expect to get full. Again your sitting around these coffee tables to drink, chat, and laugh. Drinks: They make they own in hiuse mixes under "social service" on the menu. They're pretty good and strong, they come out in a champagne bottle so the presentation is nice. You'll have to all want to drink a tequila or vodka based drink. Some in our party got their own drinks and those were good and strong as well. During our dinner reservation we got the glass jugs/bottles of tap water. During the club portion we did have to buy bottles of Fiji water. At one point it did start smelling like weed and I'm pretty sure we walked through a cloud of it. Not sure if that is allowed but better to be prepped for it. We had a good group and would recommend it, we had a good time and had read the reviews to set the expectations correctly in terms of food and drink.

We walked in without reservations and they were fully booked for the night, but they do have bar seating and a couple of side tables where you can grab a quick bite from the full menu. The ambiance is a 10/10. The decor is insane in the best way. The red chandeliers are stunning, the bar setup is perfection, and the low lighting with the table centerpieces really ties everything together. Even the bathrooms were insanely beautiful which is crazy to say but it stood out. It's rare to find restrooms that are that clean and well-designed. The drinks were great. I can't remember the name of the cocktail I got, but it had red sugar on the rim and it perfectly matched the whole aesthetic of the restaurant. For food, I got the steak taco and the fish taco and both were delicious. We were just stopping by for a quick bite before heading to the movies , but I really wish we could have stayed for a full meal because everything was amazing. Hopefully we'll get the chance to come back again one day.

Once you get in, there's a small lounge area on the left and then a larger lounge area straight ahead where the bar is. They have small tables with couches and local artwork ond display. For their drinks, their mixed drinks are average, but they only had 3 beers on draft which was a disappointment. They do serve some bar food and snacks, but like the drinks they're overpriced. I've been here twice and there's usually a wait for the rooftop. Once on a Saturday I was quoted up to a 3 hour wait that was actually 45 minutes and on a Sunday it was a 15 minute wait. I put my name down and got a friendly text when my turn was up. The view is pretty good, but not the best since it's not by the water so it's mostly looking at the city and large apartment complexes. The rooftop is small with 4-5 tables, a TV, and some seats. It seems like they allow around 40 people in at a time. Overall, this a cool place to hang out with friends this summer!

I like how it is set up like a lounge, where they have couches available for big and small groups. You can also just sit at the bar to grab a drink. There are also tables on the terrace, but it is not always open during the winter months. When the door is unlocked, it is worth checking out the view for a couple of minutes. The bartenders can be a bit hit-and-miss, depending on the night. I wouldn't take that personally. Just order your drink and focus on your company. They will come around like 15 minutes before closing and asking you to close your tabs. Supposedly their lobby bar stays open later than 11 PM, but my friends and I tried going then got turned away by the lobby bar as well. I have always had GIN CRAZE $14 (Beefeater gin, lemon, simple, raspberry puree). It is pretty solid.
